Primary Scripture: Psalm 110
Big Idea: Jesus is the King and Priest God promised to send.
Message Focus: David prophesied about a coming King-Priest who would rule and judge in the power of God. Jesus used this psalm in Matthew 22 as did Peter in Acts 2 and the author of Hebrews. Jesus came into His creation to lead us out of sin/darkness and into friendship with God because of the forgiveness He provides.
Prompting Questions: Who was Melchizedek and why is Jesus a priest in his order? What were first century Jews looking for in the coming Messiah? Why does it matter that Jesus is both King and Priest?
Cross References: Isaiah 9:6-7; Luke 2:26-33; Acts 2:30-32; Hebrews 3:1, 7:11-22; Revelation 19:16
